Super important and well written. I am a believer in a step at a time and Malchik recognizes and explains just how important that first step is.

Antonia Malchik takes a broad-based look at the human act of walking, its appeal, its health benefits, and the many ways in which our society has blocked its accessibility. Touching on everything from Black Lives Matter to the PTSD of war veterans, the growth of a car culture to developments in prosthetics, Malchik’s scope is wide.

For anyone who needs to be convinced that walking matters, and that activists in any field should be concerned about protecting their right to walk, this book is a call to action.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Although the book was very well written and clearly well-researched, I had a hard time getting to the end and found myself skimming quite a bit. I'm not going to review it on my blog because I only like to make positive recommendations there.
